"I suspect this is a historical thing, since in the original BSD docs,
these interfaces were documented in Section 2, although I see FreeBSD
for example now has them in Section 3.
Anyway, I have relocated the page to section 3 as you suggest, and
created some .so link files so that "man 2 [gs]ethostid" will continue
to do the right thing.
(There were also a few other broken pieces in the page -- e.g., no
return value or error description for sethostid() -- that I also fixed
along the way.)
The changes will be in man-pages-3.16."
** Changed in: manpages
Status: New => Fix Committed
